Yingtianfu, Jiangning Town, on the fishing port of the river, a passenger ship quietly arrived.

An old man in a green shirt and white hair stepped out of the boat, with excitement in his eyes, holding on to the mast and looking around. The scenery along the river is the same as in those years, with an endless stream of merchants coming and going, high-rise buildings and wine shops, a prosperous scene in the world.

Although it has only been three or five years since he left his homeland in the south of the Yangtze River, Hu Feng crossed to the south in the Central Plains, and it was already a bloody alien rule. Now that he has escaped with a crippled body and returned to the familiar Jiangnan, it is like a world away from home.

The middle-aged servant who got off the boat first helped the boat family tie the rope tightly, and said with a smile: "Master, you are impatient on the road, Jiang Ning, who has been thinking about it all the time, has arrived, why is he unwilling to get off the boat." ”

Jiang Jianxun didn't think it was wrong, and fled back to Jiangnan along the way, which had already established a deep relationship between him and this slave.

"Haha, Wang Da, the hometown is more timid, how can a rough man like you understand."

The servant who was called the king grinned and said, "Master, shall we go back to the house?" ”

Speaking of the old house, the joy on Jiang Jianxun's face disappeared, and he became a little sad. Things are people, my family is old and young, and I don't know how many people are still alive. At the beginning, he abandoned the wealth of his family, and insisted on going to the north to be a petty official who was not in the middle of the stream, who knew that the Shaanxi and Gansu Jiubian Guyuan Mutiny, was coerced by the chaotic soldiers and went through several anti-kings, and finally entered Beijing with Li Zicheng in a daze.

Later, the head of the city changed the banner of the king, and Wu Sangui took Dolgon, and finally entered the Shenjing, which was coveted by their entire Manchu people.

In these days, the master and servant are like duckweed, they have been the Cheng of Daming County, and they have also been the secretary of the army, and they are fortunate to have survived until now. I think of my own strategy, and I have used it all these years to work with a group

The prosperous scene around Jinling made Jiang Jianxun feel better and better the more he walked, the north was full of wolf smoke, and there were people everywhere who couldn't survive. Soon after they entered the city, a duke stepped forward, stopped them and asked, "You have fled from the north, right?" ”

It turned out that the government had already issued a clear order that all northerners who fled must be properly resettled. Seeing that they were in rags, the official in green clothes and red hats wanted to welcome them to the yamen and arrange for them to work in the registered merchants' workshops. In the workshops of these merchants, all the northerners worked, and thirty percent of the wages were paid by the yamen.

Jiang Jianxun smiled, and his mouth was an authentic Jinling dialect: "We are not people who fled to the north from the south, but people who returned to their hometowns." ”

The official is also a native of Jinling, and as soon as he heard him speak, he knew that what he said was true. The official frowned, thinking that they were countrymen who had entered the city, and reprimanded: "Don't run around, the leader sees your poor and sour appearance, and thinks that I have not done a good job in the resettlement of northerners." ”

Jiang Jianxun and Wang Da have not heard any vicious words over the years, and they have suffered any anger, where will they still take it to heart. The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards their house. That kind of calm and calm demeanor made the officials stunned for a while.

The little servant held the handle of the knife in his hand, pouted and muttered, "Two beggars, dare to walk so arrogantly." ”

Changganli, the place where countless poems are preached, between the Qinhuai River and Yuhuatai, is the most prosperous area in Jinling.

The ragged master and servant came to this place that was incompatible with their dress, Wang Da said with a slightly excited tone, "Master, we are home." ”

Jiang Jianxun mocked Wang Da on his lips, but his feet unconsciously quickened his pace. Finally, I came to my mansion.

I saw a burly soldier at the door who was heavily armoured, full of bright steel knives in his hands, looked at them and scolded angrily: "The military plane is heavy, idle people, etc., get out of the way quickly." ”

Rao is Jiang Jianxun's heart is like sinking water, or is he confused by this scene, the gold-inlaid plaque of "Jiang Mansion" in front of his house is no longer there, and it has been replaced with a larger piece of "Regent Government".

Wang Da was angry and shouted loudly: "Please report it, and say that the owner of this house has returned." ”

When Chen Xiaoliu, the guard guarding the door, heard this, he secretly thought about this courtyard at the beginning, but it was abandoned for a long time, and the commander took a fancy to the beautiful scenery here, so he took it for himself. Now, if the main owner has found it, according to the character of the commander, it is impossible to take it by force, so it is better for me to report to the old butler.

Hou Xuanyan has now gone to Suzhou, leaving Yang Shu to guard the courtyard, listening to Chen Xiaoliu's words, he walked out and took a look, the two people in front of him didn't look like people with such a big courtyard.

Yang Shu said suspiciously: "I heard that this courtyard is your ancestral property?" ”

Jiang Jianxun put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "It's not an ancestral property, I made some money at the beginning, I fell in love with this yard, and I spent money to buy it." ”

Yang Shu's eyes were hesitant, and Wang Da said on the side: "My lord is an official in Shaanxi and Gansu, and he encountered the chaos in the north and has just escaped. ”

Yang Shu couldn't help but believe three points, if these two were liars, they would not dare to come to the Regency to spread wildness. But this courtyard is no longer a simple mansion, it is the military and political center of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Shu thought for a while, and said in a kind tone: "I won't tell you anything, my young master, who is also the Duke of Yue Guo, went back to Suzhou to get married." I can't be the master for a while, so it's better to give you a sum of money first, and then you can come back when the young master comes back. ”

Jiang Jianxun's eyes lit up, and Hou Xuanyan's name, even in the north, was like thunder. I didn't expect that I could have such a fate with him, he is now penniless, but he refuses to ask for Yang Shu's money, for fear of being looked down upon by the regent.

"This housekeeper, since it was requisitioned by the Duke of Yueguo, I shouldn't have continued to insist, but in this courtyard, there is the ancestral hall of my parents and the former residence of my wife, please make it convenient for me to come and move after I settle down."

Yang Shu said: "The courtyards you mentioned have been sealed and useless, so it's naturally okay." As for the compensation for the courtyard, let's wait for the young master to come back and talk about it. ”

Leaving Changganli, Wang Da complained: "Master, he should give us money, why did you give us the resignation, when our money crossed the river, it was given to the black-hearted boatman." Now, we're going to sleep on the streets. ”

Jiang Jianxun waved his sleeves, his face was high-spirited, and he strode loudly and said: "I, Jiang, am in Jinling, although I am not everywhere, I will not sleep on the streets." After standing in Changgan for less than half an hour, someone recognized me and invited us home to entertain us, do you believe it or not? ”

Wang Da looked at his master, shook his head and sighed: "It's hard to survive tonight." ”

......

On the third watch of the month, the master and servant shrank in the corner of a high-rise building on the bank of the Qinhuai River, shivering. The remnants of spring are steep, the chill is still there, the Ming Dynasty has abolished the curfew since the regency of Yue Guogong, and there are a few pedestrians sparsely on the streets at night.

Wang Da didn't know where he learned the country song, and he hummed to himself there: "The poor are playing ten steel hooks on the cross streets, but they can't hook the flesh and blood of their relatives, and the rich are in the deep mountains and old forests, and they can't break up the unrighteous guests and friends with knives, guns and sticks." Master, you miscalculated this time. ”

Jiang Jianxun was annoyed and angry, and said hatefully: "You Diao slave doesn't know how to find something to eat for the master, humming and chirping here, annoying people." ”

At this time, a wine glass fell upstairs, and the cold wine pocket spilled, drenching the arrogant Jiang on the face. Even if Jiang Jianxun is in rags, he still pays great attention to his neat appearance, and he belongs to the kind of person who can skip eating and his face without washing.

Jiang Jianxun stood up, pointed at it and said angrily: "Where is the dog thief, the secret arrow hurts people!" ”

Upstairs is the son-in-law who is having fun, and downstairs there are naturally a group of his little entourage. Hearing Jiang Jianxun's ridiculous scolding, he stepped forward with a cruel smile, his face was not good.

Wang Da shook his head, and suddenly said to his heart: "Master, you are doing well now, you are doing well, our wine and food are here!" ”

said that before the evening, he waved his fists, one punch at a time, and the autumn wind swept away the leaves, knocking more than a dozen house slaves to the ground. can be in the nine sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, where the wolf smoke is everywhere, and the exhausted Jifu Heavy Land will be slaughtered, and the whole body will retreat. This pair of masters and servants does not rely only on luck.

Wang Da smiled, lifted the man headed by the man on the ground, turned his head to Jiang Jianxun and said, "Master, please go upstairs." ”

Jiang Jianxun took a figure-eight step, wiped the residual wine on his forehead, and went upstairs with a cold snort.

This was originally the outer residence of Wu Shouyu, the son of Wu Jikun, the richest man in Jinling, just because his wife was jealous and strong, so Wu Shouyu had to raise his canary here.

He had already heard the noise below, and he didn't care, fighting for hard-won time, and doing happy things with his little lover.

Suddenly, two uninvited guests, carrying their own little guys, broke in.

Wu Shouyu hurriedly tied his clothes, walked out and just wanted to get angry, shaking his fingers before he could scold, and suddenly asked, "Could it be my Uncle Jiang?" ”

==========

Jiang Jianxun, who cleansed his face and washed his face, drank elegantly and calmly, whether he took a bite of food with chopsticks.

Wu Shouyu and his beautiful women in the golden house were laughing and persuading them to drink, and Wang Da sat down with a whole chicken in his hand, and gnawed on Wang Da with a mouth full of oil.

"Uncle has been gone for many years, and there has been no news of him, and when he came to Jinling at the beginning of the year, the garrison lords opened the city and surrendered, and the uncle's family..."

Although Jiang Jianxun had expected this for a long time, his face moved slightly, and then recovered.

"The world is impermanent, under the chaos of war, life and death are predestined."

Wang Da, who was nibbling on the chicken, suddenly felt that the delicious food in his mouth had also lost a lot of taste. With a sour nose, I took a sip of wine, and the bitterness entered my throat.

Wu Shouyu picked what he liked and began to talk about it, hoping to dilute the grief of this poor middle-aged man.

"Fortunately, our Yue Guogong came later, and Grandpa Guo is different from other scholars, and he attaches great importance to us businessmen."

The more Wu Shouyu talked, the happier he became, and told Hou Xuanyan what he did one by one.

Jiang Jianxun asked: "My house was requisitioned by him, and his old housekeeper said that I was asked to wait for him to come back." ”

He originally thought that Wu Shouyu would arrange a residence for him, but who knew that Wu Shouyu said with a smile: "That's right, I'm going to Suzhou soon to attend the big wedding of the Duke of Guo on behalf of our Wu family." Uncle may wish to come with me, and I will introduce you to the prince of the country, and he will be reused. ”
